2011 Spring Champion Stakes Form Guide Tips & Odds

2011 Spring Champion Stakes Form Guide Tips & Odds

Royal Randwick will come to life on Saturday with a crack nine-race programme for Epsom Super Saturday headlined by four elite level showdowns including the Spring Champion Stakes 2011 and below punters will find the best Spring Champion Stakes form guide analysis and betting tips.

Scheduled to run as Randwick Race 6 at 3:20pm (Sydney time), the $400,000 Group 1 Spring Champion Stakes (2000m) originally attracted a final field of 10 but only nine three-year-olds remain in contention following the early scratching of #10 Vittoria.

With one less rival to beat home, the Anthony Cummings-trained favourite Strike The Stars has firmed in their 2011 Spring Champion Stakes odds from $2.90 to $2.60 through Luxbet.

Drawn well in barrier four and coming off a last-start victory in the Group 3 Gloaming Stakes (1800m), Savabeel gelding Strike The Stars certainly deserves their short-price but can they salute for the punters on Saturday?

While following the money is one way to bet, over the long-term punters are better off placing well-informed wagers by studying the form guides and putting money on the horses that stand out when the race fields and statistics are examined.

But we know that going over the entire Spring Champion Stakes 2011 form guide and historical trends is time consuming, so we have done it for you!

See what the Spring Champion Stakes form facts and stats reveal in regards to the horses and their claims to win on Saturday, then see the Races.com.au race tips based on the form findings below.
